Mu An'an has been afraid of Lu's second uncle since she was a child. Every time she sees his cold face, she runs away faster than a rabbit.
"Ningning, I'll go first!"
Unlike his usual self, Gu Jingchen smiled and finished speaking to Su Ning before leaving.
Lu Cheng didn't move, staring coldly at Chu Feng. Chu Feng wasn't afraid and returned a bright smile. Mu An'an, on the other hand, was terrified and nervously clung to Chu Feng's clothes. Lu Cheng could only leave dejectedly.
"That's terrifying."
As soon as Lu Cheng left, Mu An'an breathed a sigh of relief. She let go of Chu Feng and patted her chest.
Lu Cheng's feelings for Mu An'an are obvious to everyone, except for Mu An'an herself.
"Are you that afraid of him?" Chu Feng teased. "He's quite good-looking."
Mu An'an carefully recalled Lu Cheng's appearance.
"Yes, he's very handsome!"
"He's more handsome than Lu Shaohan, and more reliable too!"
Su Ning added a sentence, and as the three of them chatted, everyone could see Lu Shaohan acting like a lackey in front of Qiao Yimo not far away.
"Mm." Mu An'an also saw Lu and the other two, her mood turned somber, and she responded with a soft "Mm."
"But..." she changed the subject, glancing around to make sure Lu Cheng was far away, and said softly to Su Ning and Chu Feng, "Oh, Yama! Aren't you afraid?"
Anyway, whenever she sees him, she acts like a mouse seeing a cat. Next time, she'll try to avoid him to prevent her heart from racing and her hands from shaking.
Seeing how afraid Mu An'an was of Lu Cheng, Su Ning and Chu Feng exchanged glances and burst out laughing.
It seems that Lu Cheng has a long way to go before he can win over Mu An'an, this clueless girl.
"Chu Feng, go ahead and do what you need to do. An'an and Ya Ya are here, that's enough."
Su Ning noticed that Chu Feng was looking around absentmindedly and said...
"good!"
Chu Feng replied that the banquet was about to begin and the people from the capital should be arriving soon.
Once those people appear, she will be surrounded, making it difficult for her to even see them.
But no matter how difficult things are, she has to do them. Just like all these years, she has to live as a man. No matter how tired or helpless she is, she has to persevere for the sake of her most beloved family.
It seems that she will end up alone in this life.
Fortunately, she hasn't met the man she wants to spend her life with yet!
Mu An'an pushed Su Ning aside to chat, and they didn't notice that someone was watching Chu Feng.
As the banquet began, guests scattered around gathered in the center, while some remained in their original positions.
Applause erupted, and Mr. Gu, supported by Mrs. Gu, went up onto the stage.
On stage, the gentleman was in high spirits and looked very happy with the guests below.
He was once the head of the Gu family, a ruthless and powerful figure in Nancheng, and an absolute top-tier individual.
Now that she has retired, she is forced to retire to the Gu family home by her own son. She is unwilling but helpless!
He made a few polite remarks, mainly thanking everyone for attending his birthday banquet.
Sixty-five is not a real birthday celebration, but Mr. Gu held a grand celebration this year, leading many to speculate about the Gu family's intentions.
That year, with Su Ning's return, the world in Nancheng changed.
After Mr. Gu finished speaking, he stepped down from the stage. Many people thought that Gu Jingchen would go up and say something, but Gu Jingchen and Lu Cheng stood together chatting and showed no intention of going up to congratulate him.
He is Mr. Gu's only son!
The relationships between the members of the Gu family are truly bizarre!
About ten minutes later, Su Ning sent a text message to Luo Min.
